All the big companies who owned a majority of cable television channels have all essentially created their own streaming service

Before that, we had all their content together available on Netflix. Like it should be.

Imagine if each record label would do their own streaming service and pull their content from Spotify, YouTube music and Apple music.

Would all 3 take the Netflix way and start producing their own bands?

Music is still not being pirated as much as before Spotify & co existed. The streaming model still works.

I have a feeling that now, that the streaming model for movies & series got more confusing and more expensive than before, the seas will be full of pirates again.

I loved having all of Star Trek together on Netflix, together with everything else. Just like it is with music, it was somehow very comforting having such a good service for the money paid.

Is trek not available in other countries? I'm in Canada and we have TNG, Voyager, TOS, and DS9 on Netflix.

Actually we have all those still in Germany - also TAS. I should have phrased it better - i meant new Star Trek, like lower decks, SNW, Picard, Discovery & Prodigy
